| Carol, you are a much, much nicer person than I. I would have been home watching House Hunter's!! BIL would have had to go and watch that game with his buddies ... you were a guest. I wouldn't have gone home mad, I would've simply gone home, especially if they laughed at me! Love the picture ... V & Debra are right, just a few more inches and he could have had a mouthful of Vick's butt!!!! BTW, have you watched "If Walls Could Talk"? Trish and I loved that show ... it is so interesting. Patrick and I are "junkies" where all those shows are concerned. Some of the ideas we have picked up are amazing!

| We"ll I made it threw the night. Buddy was curled up next to my BIL during the entire game not having a clue the worst human animal abuser was on tv. I think I heard his name mentioned 50 times during that damn game! Are they promoting him or what! Shame on the Eagles. Bettanne, if I were living around the corner, yes I would have left. But I am 150 mi from home. LOL I am so happy they "LOST". Really made the night much better. |

| My thoughts exactly! I keep hearing that "he did his time" and that he shouldn't be deprived of "earning a living". Well, I'm sure he can find work with Defembaugh (sp? - local trash co.). Playing in the NFL for $1.3 mil is a privilege that should not have been granted to him. Shame on the NFL; shame on the Eagles and shame on Vick! (I feel much better now) Crystalmom's - I'd love a copy of that pic to send to my family - but I can't copy and paste it - any suggestions? Thank you!

| This is great!! I met someone in the store the other day, they said they were so glad he got to go back to football. It made me sick, I let them have it. |

Phantom Queen Morrigan Donating Member | i too was very upset that he immediately got another football contract after getting out of jail. they could have waited a little longer... i too hated the man (and his friends) for what he did to those poor dogs. However after reading and watching stories about him I do have to say that while i'm not happy he's playing football again i think he needs to do so (because he needs to still pay for the care of the surviving dogs that were taken from him). An example was made out of him (as it should have been). Not many people go to jail for dog fighting even after they are convicted. And no one thought he was gonna go either because he was famous. But he did go and went for a while (instead of just a slap on the wrists and a month or two of jail time). He was also heavily fined and went bankrupt for what he did. He's had to pay millions of dollars for what he did and is still paying for what he did. For that, i am happy. He is also working with the humane society of the US and has "pledged to make a long-term commitment to participate in our community-based outreach programs to steer inner-city youth away from dogfighting" (according to the pres of the HSUS). found this link about the money he owes and has had to pay: Rick Reilly: Michael Vick went broke in prison. How did that happen? - ESPN The Magazine i know money cannot replace the dogs that have died, or make up for the suffering that was caused. but i'm glad he has to pay so much.
